Trump's literal answer to a question

The question to Trump is just what someone should be asked: "If you win in November, will you commit to prioritizing legislation to make childcare affordable, and if so, what specific piece of legislation will you advance?"

Trump's answer:
"Well, I will do that and we're sitting down, you know, I was, uh, somebody, we had Sen. Marco Rubio and my daughter Ivanka were so, uh, impactful on that issue, it's a very important issue, but I think when you talk about the kind of numbers that I'm talking about that because childcare is childcare is couldn't, you know, is something you have to have it in this country, you have to have it. But when you talk about those numbers compare to the kind of numbers that I'm talking about by taxing foreign nations at levels that they're not used to but they'll get used to it very quickly and it's not going to stop them from doing business with us but they'll have a very substantial tax when they send product into our country. Those numbers are so much bigger than any numbers that we're talking about, including childcare, that it's going to take care. We're going to have, I, I look forward to having no deficits within a fairly very short period of time coupled with the reductions that I told you about on waste and fraud and all of the other things that are going on in our country because I have to stay with childcare, I want to stay with child care, but those numbers are small relative to the kind of economic numbers that I'm talking about, including growth. But growth also headed up by what the plan is that I just, uh, that I just told you about. We're gonna be taking in trillions of dollars and as much as childcare is talked about as being expensive, it's relatively speaking, not very expensive compared to the kind of numbers we will be taking in. We're gonna make this into an incredible country that can afford to take care of its people and then we'll worry about the rest of the world. Let's help other people. But we will take care of our country first, this is about America First. It's about Make America Great Again. We have to do it because right now we're a failing nation. So we'll take care of it."​

Some will dismiss this, of course but I asked ChatGPT this prompt: Analyse the following from a medical perspective and offer a followup that a doctor might undertake if that is indicated:

From a medical perspective, the passage you provided may raise concerns about possible cognitive impairment or speech-related issues. When assessing this kind of language, we can look for signs that might indicate underlying neurological or cognitive conditions, such as:​
  1. Confused Sentence Structure: The individual appears to lose track of their thoughts, jumping between ideas without clear transitions. This could indicate cognitive dysfunction or difficulties with executive functioning, which is common in conditions like dementia or mild cognitive impairment.
  2. Repetitive Speech: Repetition of words or phrases (e.g., "childcare is childcare" and "the kind of numbers") can be a sign of cognitive decline. This repetition often reflects difficulty organizing thoughts or memory recall issues.
  3. Incoherent Ideas: There are fragmented or disjointed thoughts (e.g., switching from childcare to economic policy in a way that’s hard to follow). This can be a sign of difficulty in sustaining a clear, logical train of thought, potentially pointing to a neurological issue.
  4. Word-Finding Difficulty: The speaker appears to struggle with word choice and coherence, as seen with phrases like "trillions of dollars" without clear context or explanation. This may suggest aphasia, which can occur in conditions like stroke or neurodegenerative diseases.

Medical Follow-Up:​

A doctor might undertake the following steps:​
  1. Cognitive Screening: Simple cognitive tests (like the Mini-Mental State Examination or Montreal Cognitive Assessment) would help assess for mild cognitive impairment, dementia, or other neurodegenerative conditions.
  2. Neurological Examination: A thorough neurological exam might be performed to rule out stroke, transient ischemic attack (TIA), or other brain-related issues.
  3. Referral to a Specialist: If concerns about cognition are raised, a referral to a neurologist or geriatrician might be indicated for more comprehensive testing, including neuroimaging (e.g., MRI or CT scan).
  4. Blood Tests: To rule out metabolic causes of cognitive decline (e.g., vitamin B12 deficiency, thyroid dysfunction, or electrolyte imbalances), blood work might be ordered.
If you or someone you know is experiencing similar symptoms, a medical evaluation would be highly recommended.​

On a basic and unassailable level....... Trump is confused and incoherent. Put him out to pasture, and let him go. :shrug:

This was an interesting and disturbing sentences and idea:
"We're gonna be taking in trillions of dollars and as much as childcare is talked about as being expensive, it's relatively speaking, not very expensive".
I wonder what yarn he had just spun wherein he thinks he can bring in "TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS" above and beyond what our nation currently derives from the GDP?
Pure fantastical "thinking". :facepalm:

I personally think that, like, when I or, maybe back when I was thinking about this, very often situations like this happen with, people -- you know, we have billions and billions coming across our border from places like Austria, and even New Zealand, where the liberal communist governments open their jails and their insane asylums -- where people like Ivanka thought so. And I have smart lawyers, the greatest lawyers in the country and even in the world, who know that I never did those things to Ivanka. And you know, everyone knows, that those people in Georgia cheat and the leftist communist Kumalat controlled press lie -- by the way, have you ever heard her? Who laughs like that? Nobody laughs like that! I've known her for a long time, even before she was born, and it's interesting that she never laughed like that before she decides to become an afro-feminine Jamaica who shouldn't be allowed to run for President because, you know, that's an important job -- maybe even the most important job -- and it should be reserved for Americans. And that's what MAGA is all about, while the extreme left-wing Democratic Party, with its no-energy leaders like Biden and Cheney and Hillary will absolutely destroy this sick, disgusting, country. And that's what I'll do within of month of being installed elected dictator President on day one.

People like to find meaning and will search for meaning in randomness and even invent it. Personally the medical recommendations that the 2nd post outlined should be undertaken and proper treatment initiated.

And terrible economics! Those tarrifs will only make things more expensive for everyone here.

And he gets better marks than Harris on the economy, I doubt he can spell it at this point.

That just demonstrates that Trump has never understood tariffs, and does not understand them now, even after he's been repeatedly told. He has this vague notion that if he slaps 60% tariff on Chinese goods, the Chinese will be sending lots and lots of lovely extra money that he can use for whatever he likes. This is, as anyone but a Trump worshipper (who are usually even more uninformed than he is), simply not the case. It means that China will send fewer goods to the U.S., and that Americans will pay that much more for those goods that China does send.

That simple lack of understanding about an economic staple should frighten Americans concerned about the economy away. But sadly, so many are so ignorant on the topic that it will not.

Only in your world where tariffs are beneficial for other countries, but not for our own.

Wonderful reasoning here. Keep up the good work.

If you had an honest bone in your body, you would go back, look at my post, and tell me where I said that "tarriffs are beneficial for other countries, but not our own."

Once again, I eagerly await that expression of honesty.

Because that's the implication you're putting forth given your statement over tariffs as being bad for this country, but other nations are reveling over tariffs. Otherwise they would oppose tariffs themselves. Make sense? No?

I eagerly await the next response you're going to give over it.

I said, "China will send fewer goods to the U.S." Read it -- it's right there in the post. That is NOT GOOD FOR CHINA. They need to sell their products and earn income, too.

And nowhere did I say anything about "other nations are reveling over tarriffs." Go back and look.

And stop telling untruths -- it doesn't help your case.



Oh, never mind. For reasons that are quite real, but if I cited them I'd be censured by the forum, I have decided to have no more dialogue with you. For my own reasons, you are now on ignore.

“I do the weave. You know what the weave is? I’ll talk about, like, nine different things that they all come back brilliantly together. And it’s like friends of mine that are like English professors, they say: ‘It’s the most brilliant thing I’ve ever seen.' But the fake news, you know what they say, ‘He rambled.’ It’s not rambling. What you do is you get off a subject to mention another little tidbit, then you get back on to the subject, and you go through this and you do it for two hours, and you don’t even mispronounce one word.”

Not mental at all.

My mum had dementia and lived in a care home for six years. She made more sense. But then, so does my cat.

- Trump rebrands his ramblings as ‘I do the weave’ – but is he just losing it?

I have listened to more Trump weaving than anyone should, for their own mental health. And I am here to tell you that he does nothing at all like bringing his topics together, neither brilliantly nor even stupidly. The man is let's not put to fine a colour on it, not well in the head.

Trump doesn't care about childcare is what.he meant. Trump is playing to his base that finds the issues as boring as he does.
Ya know what one thing that **** analysis doesn't include? The wanker is 78 years old and hasn't taken very good care of himself.

Are we surprised? He's always rambled and his racism and xenophobia and lack of thought did help him get ahead with his racist, xenophobic MAGA base, who aren't understanding they'll be paying for his proposed big tarrifs.
